The Fire Officer Degree Program Is no Longer Open to New Students

Students previously enrolled in the Fire Officer Degree program at Edmonds Community
College may contact Pam LeMay for information about their program options: plemay@edcc.edu | 425.640.1371.

At this time, no classes are being offered for the Fire Officer AAS-T degree or certificate.

We apologize for any inconvenience and will assist any student who is interested in
completing the Fire Officer degree or certificate. Credits may be earned through a
partnership with the 2012 King County Officer Development Academy or for IFSAC certification.

Edmonds Community College has adopted the Washington State Fire Service Education
Association Fire Officer Degree Program for fire service personnel. The degree provides
a higher education program that enables fire departments, in cooperation with Edmonds
Community College, to develop technically competent fire officers. who are highly
skilled in their craft.

The majority of students in this program are professional firefighters who want to
improve their general education and fire fighting command expertise. The information,
training and education gained from this program will enhance your chance to advance
in the fire fighting profession, as well as sharpen your current work skills. Optional
IFSAC testing is arranged after appropriate courses. An additional fee is paid directly
to the testing agency.

Prior Learning Credit for What You Already Know and Can Do

Credit for what you already know and have learned through previous training (especially
by the National Fire Academy or IFSAC certification) may be awarded.
